Vom dunkelsten Fleck auf der Weste des Robert Koch. In der Corona-Krise ist sein Name in aller Munde: Robert Koch gilt als eine der Lichtgestalten der deutschen Medizingeschichte. Die Expedition indes, die er 1906 ins Schutzgebiet Deutsch-Ostafrika unternimmt, bezeichnet auch das nach ihm benannte Institut als dunkelstes Kapitel in Kochs Geschichte. Lichtwarck-Aschoffs beklemmendes Buch zeigt, wie der Nobelpreistrager medizinische Versuche an Menschen durchfuhrt, die an der durch die Tsetsefliege ubertragenen Schlafkrankheit leiden, und die Internierung Kranker in Lagern empfiehlt. Ziel ist, die Arbeitskraft der gesunden Kolonisierten zu erhalten – und sei es um den Preis, dass die Infizierten durch seine Experimente Schaden an Leib und Seele nehmen oder gar den Tod finden.
